Class Descriptions

COUNTRY LINE DANCING is taught in an easy to learn format. Get ready to Boot Scoot & Boogie with this new class! We'll practice the moves without music, then put the moves to music. Even though this is a country line dancing class, please no cowgirl boots, wear sneakers to protect the floor. All fitness levels, bring water.

LES MILLS BODYPUMP is a scientifically-backed barbell workout using light to moderate weights and high reps to build strength. You’ll work all your major muscles as you increase aerobic fitness and build strength. The encouragement, motivation, and great music you get in a BODYPUMP class will leave you feeling energized, confident, and powerful, while getting you fitter, faster.

LES MILLS STRENGTH & DEVELOPMENT is a 12-week progressive strength building class. Each workout focuses on a specific training protocol. Development ranges from workouts such as foundational strength, Hypertrophy and Pure Strength.

LES MILLS SPRINT is a 30-minute High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) workout, using an indoor bike to achieve fast results. It’s a short, intense style of training where the thrill and motivation comes from pushing your physical and mental limits. You combine bursts of intensity, where you work as hard as possible, with periods of rest that prepare you for the next effort. The payoff? You smash your fitness goals, fast.

YOGA/PILATES moves through a variety of yoga and Pilates poses in a balanced and systematic way. Improve your total body alignment, flexibility, muscle strength and endurance with low-impact exercises that focus on your breath and core strength. This class is perfect for every fitness level.
